It occurs to me that because some of these shoes are coming up on 20 years old, many of you may not know they exist because Nike has not retro'd them as of yet.
Over the last few years ive been surprised at the retros we have gotten instead of these, so hopefully this post will generate interest that will get the ball rolling on getting these released again, because these five are just iconic works of art in my humble opinion.
but enough talk, lets look at the shoes:
1 - 1995 Nike Air Diamond Fury Mid, Griffey's original shoe, and a work of art itself. im just amazed these weren't released with all the Griffey hype the last few years.

2 - 1995 Nike Air Trainer Marauder Mid, clean lines, great contrasts; I just love these and hardly anyone else knows about them.

3 - 1995 Nike Air Barrage Mid, just look at that strap! real turf classics.

4 - 1996 Pro Streak Max, more straps! ive seen a retro sample, but nothing else since.

5 - 1995 Nike Air Fly Mid, yep, even more straps!
View media item 470962
and yes I know well get a dozen awful colorways, but if we at least get the OG colors listed above, it will be worth it. the bonus is that many of them don't have visible air bubbles for nike to make smaller than they outta be too right?
so post or petition or whatever you wanna do to make nike remember these exist and that we demand retros of them!
